Selaginella tortipila
1865Twistedhair Spikemoss
Summary
Selaginella tortipila is a species in the family Selaginellaceae commonly known as twistedhiar spikemoss. It is mainly found in southeastern United States in states like North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama, specifically in the region of Appalachian mountains and piedmont. S. tortipila is a small and green plant which grows on rocky outcrops and granitic surfaces. Historically, there has been a long debate over whether S. tortipila and its closely relative Selaginella sherwoodii with some scientist claiming that taxonomically there are the same species. Recently, some classified S. sherwoodii as an ecological form of S. tortipila. The naming of S. tortipila is retraced back in 1865 by A. Braun and the description of S. sherwoodii by Lucien Underwood in 1902....read more on Wikipedia.
